Chapter 59: Sudden Attack (2)

The first one to realize that something was wrong was Regina, but when she realized the target of the attack was not Bloed, she decided not to move. Anyway, the blonde girl had her own bodyguard.

Bloed and Sara realized the situation an instant later.

"Young miss, Careful!" Sara shouted and rushed towards Erika. She held a dagger in her hand and tried to intercept the man.

But before she could reach Erika, another man attacked from behind.

"I'm your opponent!"

Sara's expression changed. She hurriedly twisted her body and turned around, barely stopping the attack, but that left the first man free to attack Erika.

Erika opened her eyes wide. A mix of surprise and fear appeared in her eyes, and her face turned pale.

The man extended her hand and tried to grab her neck, but suddenly, a necklace on Erika's neck lit up.

*BAM!*

A mana barrier appeared around Erika and stopped the man's attack.

The man, however, did not seem surprised by that. Without changing his expression, he raised his fist and swung it down!

*BAM!*

*CRACK!*

With just the first punch of the man, the barrier cracked.

"Young miss!" Sara panicked. She tried to rush towards Erika again, but the man she was fighting against attacked her fiercely. It was obvious he did not want to defeat Sara but just to stall her.

However, his strategy was effective. While Sara was busy defending against the second man's attacks, the other man punched the barrier again!

The punch shook the surroundings and multiplied the cracks on Erika's barrier.

A smile appeared on his lips. At this rate, he just needed a few seconds to destroy the barrier and take the girl away.

But at that moment, Sara recalled the pair standing behind the man and an idea occurred her.

"Young master Bloed, please help the young miss!"

Instantly, the attention of all the people fighting was directed to Bloed and Regina.

Bloed frowned. He was not planning to get involved in this fight. No matter how he saw it, it was not a good idea.

Nevertheless, if he did not help, he risked being suspected of working with the attackers.

However, the attackers did not care about Bloed's considerations. Almost instantly, the one fighting Sara gave out an order.

"Someone stop them! Don't let them get near!"

As soon as his words sounded, two people fell in front of Bloed and Regina and attacked the pair.

"Damn it!" Bloed's expression darkened. He jumped aside, barely evading the dagger of one of the men and unsheathed his saber. At the same time, he bellowed.

"Tito!"

"Woof!"

The puppy barked eagerly. It turned into metallic sand that surrounded Bloed. In less than one second, a beautiful bluish armor had appeared on Bloed's body.

Then, Bloed's ESP ability was activated.

His eyes glinted with blue light, and his armor shone with electricity. Under the astonished gaze of his attacker, Bloed kicked the ground.

Just a glance was enough for Bloed to get an idea of the enemy strength. Peak C-Rank, specialized in agility and assassinations.

Countless data flashed through his eyes. He quickly calculated the enemy's next movement and moved according to it.

With a flash of light, his saber slashed down.

The assassin facing him snorted coldly. He evaded Bloed's slash and leaned his body forward. He then grabbed another dagger from his waist and threw it towards him.

'25% probability of throwing a dagger.' That thought appeared briefly in Bloed's mind, but it was quickly replaced by new information.

Bloed rotated the handle of his saber and changed the direction of the slash. He then took another step forward, closing the distance between the assassin and him, and ignoring the flying dagger.

But before the dagger could touch him, his body leaned aside, avoiding it narrowly.

His saber, on the other hand, was already in front of the assassin.

The assassin did not panic. It could feel Bloed's mana fluctuations and knew he was at the C-Rank, just like him. The assassin was confident in defeating most opponents in his same rank.

Calmly, he raised his dagger to block Bloed's Saber. At the same time, his other hand went to the belt on his waist to take another dagger.

Once his dagger blocked the saber, he would use the other dagger to stab his heart.

But that was his mistake.

When his dagger clashed with Bloed's saber, he did not felt the expected impact. Instead, Bloed's saber sliced cleanly through his dagger, continuing towards his body, and cutting his neck.

Until the end, the man could not understand what happened.

But Bloed did not stop to celebrate his kill. Instead, he fixed his gaze in the man battering Erika's shield. During the time Bloed was being distracted, the barrier had been hit several times.

It was just about to be broken!

Bloed narrowed his eyes. Now that he had been forced to fight, he would fight to the end.

Kicking the ground, he covered the distance between the man and him and swung his saber towards his arm.

The man could only stop attacking Erika to defend against Bloed's saber.

"Damn it! Can you not stop him for even one second!" Helpless, he crossed his arms and coated his body with mana.

Unfortunately, the man had not seen how Bloed killed his companion.

When the saber touched his crossed arms, the man realized that something was wrong.

In an instant, the man saw Bloed's saber cut through his arm as though it was butter!

'Impossible!' The man's expression turned to one of terror. However, he was a B-Rank practitioner, much stronger and more experienced than his C-Rank companion.

While his companion could only watch helplessly while the saber sliced his neck, he managed to move his body back and save his life at the cost of an arm!

"AHHHH!!!" With a shout of pain, he used his remaining arm to unleash a counterattack in Bloed's direction.

But Bloed just scoffed in disdain.

Since the start, he was not fighting alone.

Regina suddenly appeared beside Bloed. She created an energy barrier, stopping the man's punch. At the same time, she leaned his body aside and used her two energy blades to cut towards the man's neck.

She had managed to kill her opponent and had come to help Bloed!

The man widened his eyes in surprise. Without hesitation, he moved his head back, but his movement created an opening for Bloed.

Taking advantage of that opportunity, Bloed crouched down and jumped towards the man's chest.

"Checkmate!"

But then, the situation changed again.

In Bloed's perception, a man suddenly appeared.

The man moved quickly. In an instant, he had appeared before Bloed and raised a glowing shield.

*Clank!*

For an instant, the shield stopped Bloed's saber.

But then, the saber continued moving forward.

"Oh?" The man was surprised, but he did not panic. He let go of the shield and grabbed his companion for the neck. Before Bloed's saber could reach him, he jumped away onto a roof with his companion.

"Retreat." The newcomer said to the assassin fighting Sara.

"Understood." The assassin nodded. Before Sara could react, he jumped back and disappeared into the crow.

Not even one second later, Bloed felt a terrifying presence flying towards them.

"Who dares to touch my daughter!?"
